You can now support us on Patreon!At long last, the boys cover Hank Williams Sr., the "Hillbilly Shakespeare" himself. This week Danny and Tyler are joined by Greg Hess (@heygreghess, MEGA Podcast, Live from Here, Improvised Shakespeare) to discuss Hank Williams' final recorded song before his untimely passing. Is "I'll Never Get Out of This World Alive" dark comedy country? A knowing farewell? Straight up cursed? Or perhaps one of the most Buddhist country songs ever recorded? All of the above? We dig in to find out, plus we talk about a lot of other fun stuff, including (but not limited to) our theories on the evolution of pop country, ideal child names, and Hoobastank. This is a real fun one!You've probably heard "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" and "Move It On Over" just from being alive and in the world, but we have a few other Hank Sr. recommendations for you!Hey Good Lookin’Mansion On A HillYour Cheating HeartI Could Never Be Ashamed of YouJumbalaya (On The Bayou)Honky Tonkin’My Bucket’s Gotta Hole In ItHowlin’ At The MoonRockin’ Chair MoneyI Saw The LightFollow the link to keep up with which songs are being added to our Ultimate Country Playlist on Spotify, now including the "I'll Never Get Out of This World Alive": https://tinyurl.com/takethispodplaylist And now on TIDAL!https://t.co/MHEvOz2DOAFor everything else:https://linktr.ee/takethispodandshoveit
